THE MEDICINAL RELEVANCE OF USING “OFFICINALE“ AND “OFFICINALIS“ AS PLANT SPECIES NAMES IN ROMANIAN FLORA

Abstract

The present study discusses the relevance of terms “officinale“ and “officinalis“ as plant species names in
Romanian flora. Among the species identified in Romanian flora that bear these names and suggest
medicinal properties, literature data confirm them for several species, while medicinal value of other herbals
remains unclear.
